lower
| Definition: | object x2 = lower(object x1) |
| Description: |
Convert an atom or sequence to lower case.
Should you need to, you can also invoke islower(integer ch) to determine if a character is lower case. [ASCII only] Note that utf32_to_utf8(lower(utf8_to_utf32(utf8))) may be advised
when dealing with utf8 strings, since lower(utf8) is likely to mangle individual bytes that are part of a multibye representation
of unicode codepoints #100..#10FFFF. Nothing in that range is altered by lower().
|
| pwa/p2js: | Supported. |
| Example: |
s = lower("Phix")
-- s is "phix"
a = lower('B')
-- a is 'b'
s = lower({"Phix", "Programming"})
-- s is {"phix", "programming"}
